RHS say of this variety "Exceptional quality; green, very rapid grower,
very sweet and moist, with high yield and attractive short leaves" and
top the accolade off with an AGM.

I tried to find some seed earlier in the year without success and a
thorough Google only finds US/Canadian suppliers :(

Does anyone know of a UK supplier?

Thanks!

It was submited for trialBy Elsoms in 1997, they no longer list it,
only

Kolibri F1 A mid-early variety, purple skinned with flattish round
shape, excellent white flesh quality

and

Korist F1 A very early white skinned variety suitable for forcing.
Flattish globe shape with mild, crisp flesh holds well without getting
woody.

You could try contacting them to see if they know of a UK supplier.

This supplier in the U.S. stocks seed of Kongo, and will
ship internationally. Might be worth checking out,
especially the shipping terms.
